Episode 316: It’s Oktoberfest! Prost?
It’s been a sad year for beer festivals in 2020, and Germany’s Oktoberfest wasn’t immune to the global pandemic that is shaping our social lives. But, that’s not going to stop us from celebrating!

Editor’s note: this last paragraph will just remain as-is for future posts until this lockdown is over.
We hope you’re safe. We know this sucks right now. We miss our friends and family, socializing, and even going for a run without having to wear a mask, but this is temporary and staying at home as much as possible, while also keeping our distance from others in public, is something we must all do. That being said, we live in a great time in history where we have a robust internet that allows us all to stay in contact, see each other’s faces, and even get together once a week for a virtual happy hour.
We’ll be recording episodes once a week from here out, which is actually pretty cool for those who normally can’t make it to our typical monthly recording sessions. We’ll be having guests on the show, trying new beers, and continuing to keep doing our thing the best we can. Thanks for sticking with us. We’ll get through this.
Now, on with the show!
BREW THE SHIT OUT OF IT.
WASH YOUR HANDS.
WEAR A MASK.
DON’T BE AN ASSHOLE.
